Riga, Latvija


Riga, what can I say? Surprise packet of the trip! Get there before it's flooded with tourists like Brugge and make sure you see the Dzintarinš children's folk dance troupe while you are there.
The stop in Riga followed the now usual plan. We had a walking tour of the old town in the morning, which included the performance of the Dzintarinš children's folk dance troupe in a Guild Hall and a short walk around the Art Nouveau district. A more extensive tour of the Art Nouveau district was on offer for the afternoon but I decided to spend it just wandering around instead.
